But what will happen when he outgrows this shell, and has to say goodbye to all the sea creatures who have made Hermit Crabs house a home? Pobre Cangrejo Ermitao! Su ajustado caracol se le ha quedado pequeo, as que encuentra uno ms grande, al igual que a muchos nuevos amigos que van a decorar y proteger su nueva casa. Poor Hermit Crab! Hes outgrown his snug little shell, so he finds himself a larger one-and many new friends to decorate and protect his new house. Los nios que estn expuestos a cambios en sus vidas se identificarn con el cuento del Cangrejo Ermitao, y, de paso, aprendern mucho sobre el fascinante mundo de la vida marina. Book Synopsis Children facing change in their own lives will relate to Hermit Crabs story-and learn a lot about the fascinating world of marine life along the way. I think the effort and time spent was well worth it, looking at the joy on their faces.About the Book A hermit crab who has outgrown his old shell moves into a new one, which he decorates and enhances with the various sea creatures he meets in his travels. I’m glad to say that it turned out pretty well, and the kids loved it! Especially C, who wanted me to recite the story while she acted it out for G on the felt story book (we did this three times!). This could be used with my existing felt story book to re-enact the story. Inspired by the internet, I made a felt playset, complete with hermit crab, shell, and the various marine lifeforms that appear in the story. Reading this story, the kids get to learn about the hermit crab and other marine lifeforms in its habitat as well as the different months in a year.īesides the usual lapbook and crafts, I wanted to try something more interesting (and slightly more ambitious). In this simple tale, we follow hermit crab as he looks for a new house, and proceeds to add various creatures to his shell for decoration and protection. Eric Carle books are very popular with my kids, and I’m sure the popular children’s author needs no introduction. Last week I borrowed a copy of Eric Carle’s A House for Hermit Crab from the library, intending to read it with C and G.
